Meet the Press

This show went south with C Todd as an awful, inept replacement for Tim Russert. Used to be a Sunday ritual my Dad and I watched and when I moved out we would still compare notes. Now? It's ratings reflect what it's worth: nobody's time.

It will never be the same without Tim Russert - the best news show host, ever.

Please get someone more forceful to host show. Chuck Todd lets Republicans run ALL OVER him. He NEVER asks the HARD HITTING QUESTIONS and DOESN'T HOLD their feet to the fire on their responses. He is embarrassing and its painful to watch the show any more. Entertainment Tonight would be a better venue for him. Margaret Brennan on Face the Nation makes Chuck Todd like a wimp

Tim Russert is a great host for "Meet the Press". He has never made any real bones about having been raised in a working-class union Catholic household in Buffalo, or acted as if this has in no way shaped his thinking. This background does not, however, prevent him from asking real, probing questions of his guests, Democrats and Republicans alike. He is less objective about his beloved Bills than he is about politics, but he is at his very best when he asks people their stance in light of their own past comments which he has at his disposal on videotape. Russert, contrary to some of the other opinions posted here, has in my opinion been far less of a Democratic partisan than his MSNBC counterpart, Chris Matthews.

Love MTP and Chuck Todd is great EXCEPT he needs to stop lowering his voice at the end of some sentences. When his voice decreases to almost a whisper at the end of a sentence, it becomes necessary to watch with close caption in order to know what he actually says.
